i know all the best racers online use the s2000 or the rx7... but does neone here actually use the supra?? cause i love my supra and the stats for my car is really good, but i just cant seem to start off well.... i keep it on the green and get a perfect shift off the start but i still spin....and lose a lot of time. neways, i always gain ground once i get moving but my problem is off the start.. does neone use a supra, if so, whats ur rep points cause mine is 19K but i always lose a lot.. i dont want to go back to the rx7... i love my supra!!!!

Well I drive the Sup, And what I do is actually have it below the green, that way i dont have a lot of wheelspin and take off pretty good. I do lose to most skylines, but generally I can hold me own

Im still a rookie in NFSU with 30/115 progress. Which car should I use to get started with?

Gussy · Post by **Gussy** » 16 Dec 2003, 18:28

use the civic... i used it all the way till i got the Acura RSX

I agree with Gussy here.. I've went Civic then get rsx after it gets unlocked.

I'm at 74/111 now and still using the RSX.

civic till supra, supra till rx7, thats the way i went. my favourite is the rx7, but on online i always use the supra, especially for drifting

when do I unlock the supra?

ac3shi6h · Post by **ac3shi6h** » 17 Dec 2003, 21:01

How many races have you done?

Grez~Supra_RZ-S · Post by **Grez~Supra_RZ-S** » 17 Dec 2003, 22:40

erm, good question lol, i honestly cant remember, its not long after u unlock a unique vinyl i think

ac3shi6h · Post by **ac3shi6h** » 17 Dec 2003, 23:12

U still have a ways to go .. If have the Hyundai then it should not be long I recon..

Gussy · Post by **Gussy** » 17 Dec 2003, 23:21

wrx, vinyls and shiznit are unlocked by STYLE POINTS, cars unlocked by progress in game. so, that's not really a good way to decide when the supra is unlocked...

aggreed thats why I asked if he had the Hyundai Tiburon

Grez~Supra_RZ-S · Post by **Grez~Supra_RZ-S** » 17 Dec 2003, 23:30

no i meant the unique vinyl from samantha, i probably should have said that, oops

ac3shi6h · Post by **ac3shi6h** » 17 Dec 2003, 23:31

U mean the XMOD vinyl?? damn name the cars you have.. that makes it a lot easier

Grez~Supra_RZ-S · Post by **Grez~Supra_RZ-S** » 18 Dec 2003, 20:09

Look, its not too hard to understand really is it, when u get the option of 10 unique vinyls from samantha in underground mode. do u want me to play the game again and write down everything that happens per second? then ill print it all out in a shiznit guide to nfsu, that better?

MrK · Post by **MrK** » 19 Dec 2003, 02:17

yeah, I got the tiburon...
Im in the 39th race...

ac3shi6h · Post by **ac3shi6h** » 19 Dec 2003, 03:01

Then u are still a weee ways out

the Xmod vinyl is one of the first and the supra is unlocked I think around the 70-80th+ races, somewhere there its hard to remember specially if you dont check after a race. As I had said before, I first beat the game with the lancer, I made a new profile and beat it with the RSX as soon as I unlocked it and I think it has great handling and makes really good turns. I suggest you try and practice driving on Manual, I use it on manual so before a 90Â° turn I downshift and the car slows down alowing you to make the turn easily without hitting the wall, if you have it on automatic the car will downshift only after you break and if you dont brake enough you would usually hit the wall and loose time or possition.
BTW I play with the supra on drag and until now I haven't spinned my wheels too much to slow down at the start.
